La Martina is going to have a Black Weekend starting 23.11.17. Do check them out for exclusive discounts. I love their collections particularly The Guards. This post is not a promotion for the brand. It is written on my own accord with my honest opinion.

Location: London.

Hi my loves, hope you guys are having a good week so far. In this short post I will be featuring one of my handbag. I only have 3 handbag in my collection so far. Of course it is my dream to have more (which woman doesn’t) but I am very contented with what I have at the moment. This is the bag I would reach for on the days I am feeling more dressy. In my opinion, a white bag completes any outfits. And I have been using it season in season out without any problem. The size is small but it could fit my essentials very well such as handphone, key holder, card holder, a few make up and a shade. I still remember getting my La Martina at Forte dei Marmi, Italy. It was my first designer handbag and every time I use this handbag it reminds me of the beautiful memories I had on my travels there and also a reminder that I bought it with my hard earn money. I am very proud of this bag and I just know I will keep it in my collection for the longest time. Do you guys have a bag that has a special memory attached to it? Share it in the comments below, it would be lovely to hear your bag memories.

Hello everyone! I know it has been quite awhile since my last post. Being a full-time teacher takes most of my time away. Trying to establish a new routine so the things that I like to do will not take a back seat! Weekends are pretty much the days I dress up because weekdays I have uniform (yes I do, that’s perfectly fine because I love my job. Besides, less headache because I don’t have to think what to wear on a daily basis). This outfit is something I put together on a whim. I wanted to check if the cream long-sleeved shirt I had in my closet will go well with my military detailed sweater. And I was quite pleased on how the whole outfit turn out in the end. The weather in London definitely does not allow me to wear any of my clothes on their own anymore. I am in love with these layers and I am sure I will wear them on repeat. The button detailed shirt from Exhibit.co adds so much character to the sweater. I finished the look with my over the knee flat boots. I can’t appreciate them enough during the colder months. They are truly a life saver in keeping my pins extra warm. I will write on how I make my over the knee boots work for me on my petite frame on my next blog. Till then hope you guys enjoyed this outfit of the Saturday of mine!

As the cold weather coming at me full force, I am forced to up my gear and find new ways to dress myself. With a curated but limited amount of clothing that I have I sort of need to experiment with new looks. For me that is what makes dressing up fun. It was my first time trying to layer a sweater on top of a white shirt and to be honest I am loving this look. The neutral colour palette gives this ensemble a clean, crisp, layered yet not bulky feel. The black leather jacket (especially when zipped up) did a good job defining the my waist. I tied the look together with a pointy block heeled sandal and a black handbag – all ready to take a stroll around Belgravia, London. So what do you guys think of this look? And do share your tips on how to dress chic yet warm enough for chilly weather on the comment section below! Have a great week ahead guys. 🙂

After a year in London aka constant chilly weather, I realised that covering my neck is the best solution for someone who is always freezing like me. Somehow I am still freezing mind you but a polo neck just makes me feel that much better. I found this beautiful polo neck long sleeve Breton top from Petite Bateau. It is my second purchase from them and I can’t commend the quality of their clothes highly enough. This brand does not only make beautiful children’s clothing, their adult version is on point as well. The materials and workmanship is top-notch. I bought this particular top during their end of season sale and only cost me £15! My advise for anyone who want to grab something from Petite Bateau, do wait for the sales. It’s worth it provided you can wait! 🙂 It was not massively chilly on this day, so I styled my polo neck striped top with tailored black pants, and a beige cape. I have said this before and I’ll say this again. There is something about Breton stripes that makes anyone feel put together. Let me know if you own one in your collection! And oh, if you guys have any suggestions for polo neck tops/sweaters, do share with me. 😉 Have a great evening!

Diwali has just passed and one thing I miss the most is the vibe of the festival. Back in Kuala Lumpur the atmosphere is noisy (in a good way), everything is colourful and you know it is the time for the festival of lights. I miss the lip-smacking good food, sweets, decorations, the open houses where you visit your neighbours, friends and relative’s home who embrace you with open arms. Nearing the time of celebration, we decided to try Masala Zone, Covent Garden. It was a very apt decision to have our own version of experiencing the joy of the festival. The moment I stepped in I was blown away by the interior. It was beautiful and the whole restaurant was filled with the smell of spice. Yes, Diwali was not the same as back in Malaysia but the memory is as sweet as ever.

Autumn is here in London and that means the usual (rain, wind, grey clouds) plus unpredictable temperature. But mostly it will feel like winter. I still have a list of attire to purchase to prepare myself for the coming winter season. The freezing cold weather is just not my thing. However luckily I have made some good purchase to get me through the chill that is starting to creep up on me.

A chunky jumper and a high waisted wide leg white pants. This has been my go to attire for this autumn. The jumper complements the high waisted pants very nicely. Who knew being all covered up would make one feel great. As a separate, the high waisted pants goes really well with cropped tops/blouse (weather permitting). On the other hand, the jumper is great with skinny jeans too.

I am totally in love with this Exhibitstore white wide leg pants. This is my second purchase from this label and I couldn’t be happier. The quality and craftsmanship are just great. I am very proud of this Singaporean brand. Do check them out! They do worldwide delivery with reasonable shipping rate.

It has been almost two weeks since I came back to London. I am still reminiscing about Malaysia. It was such a great trip. One occasion that had made the trip so sweet is that I get to experience our Independence Day celebration after a long hiatus. To be honest I can’t remember when was the last time I was back home during Independence Day. The whole vibe on that afternoon was amazing. People from young to old gathered with full of energy, blowing their vuvuzelas. The whole street was lit up by the community’s spirit and zest. Despite the blazing hot weather, I can’t help but feel proud of the country. It has come very far and still striving for the best. Every place has its fair share of positives and negatives, I believe Independence Day is a day that reminds us to focus on the positives and charge forward for a greater existence. It applies not only to a country but to each and every one of us.
